Mr. Justice Wargrave:
The voice said that he had killed Edward Seton. When everyone hears the voice Mr. Justice Wargrave seems quite calm and tries to figure everything out.
Nice job . Sentences are complete, punctuation is accurate for the most part. Comments about each character are well-chosen, too!
I chose foreshadowing:
One thing in the chapter that was a foreshadowing was the ten little Indian's poem.
Ten little Indian boys went out to dine;
One choked his little self and then there were nine.
Nine little Indian boys sat up very late;
One overslept himself and then there were eight.
Eight little Indian boys traveling in Devon;
One said he’d stay there and then there were seven.
Seven little Indian boys chopping up sticks;
One chopped himself in halves and then there were six.
Six little Indian boys playing with a hive;
A bumblebee stung one and then there were five.
Five little Indian boys going in for law,
One got in Chancery and then there were four.
Four little Indian boys going out to sea;
A red herring swallowed one and then there were three.
Three little Indian boys walking in the Zoo;
A big bear hugged one and then there were two.
Two little Indian boys sitting in the sun;
On got frizzled up and then there was one.
One little Indian boy left all alone;
He went and hanged himself and then there were none
"The heathen are sunk down in the pit that the made: in the net which they hid is their own foot taken. The Lord is known by the judgment which he executeth: the wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. The wicked shall be turned into hell."
"Remember this island when I was a kid. Never thought I'd be doing this sort of job in a house here. Good thing, perhaps, that one can't foresee the future..."
Funny the way they all eyed each other-- as though they knew.
The ten little Indians poem is a foreshadowing because it shows how each one of them are going to die throughout the story. The bible verse that Miss Brent read is a foreshadowing because the verse is about how the wicked will perish. The story is about people who killed other people so they will die. The statement said about being at the island as a kid and is a foreshadowing because the last line says that one cant foresee the future.... is saying that something is going to happen in the future. The line about eyeing each other is a foreshadow because you don't know what it means by knew so it's a foreshadow because you will find out what they "know". You have some good examples of foreshadowing.
If you reread your paragraph, you will see/hear some mistakes. Also, remember to capitalize Bible.

how does a mystery novel differ from a narrative?
how might the title be a clue to the story?
A narrative is different from a novel because a novel is more of a complex story, I think. A narrative has usually one person telling the story however, in a novel there can be different people telling the story. A mystery novel usually is told in the point of view of multiple people. It is a mystery meaning you have to figure out what happens, or solve it. Something usually happens and the different characters are figuring out who did it.
I am thinking that the title is making it seem like a people are fighting for something. Like something crazy is going to happen where they are going to have to figure out a mystery, like the game clue.
Maggie-
You mention characteristics of novels, but you do not say anything about mystery novels. What makes them different? Does length make a difference?
Did you link this page to the students pages? They should all be linked.
Check your answers for mistakes in spelling, punctuation, and sentence structure.
